Nina POV
They sat me in a cell. I sat down on the cot they had for me and cried.
"I wanna go home now!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. No anwser. "I know someone is there! Release me this instant! I will make sure you rot in the deepest parts of hell!" I screamed. I know guards are standing there. I grabbed a rock on the ground and threw it. It hit ones back. He looked annoyed and came in the cell. He grabbed me.
"Be quiet, Princepessa Nina." He said seething with anger.
"You can't hurt me." I said.
"Yes he can." Someone said. I looked. Patricia. "I give permission." She said.
"Emperor wouldn't like that." I said.
"Well he won't need you. Joy is carrying the heir." She said.
"Her stomach was flat." I said.
"Well the doctor saw her large belly." She said. I scrambled out of whoever was holdings me arms and then walked up to Patricia.
"What is your game?" I asked.
"I don't have one. My friend is pregnant and now you are free to be abused anyway the guards want."
"I don't believe you."
"Well it's 100 percent true."
"Take me to see her." I said. She snorted.
"I don't have to let you do anything." She said.
"Well the Emperor did say to keep me okay and I'm not techinically a prisoner." I said. She rolled her eyes and gestured for the guard to open the door. He grabbed my arm. Patricia lead us out of the dungeons. I took a deep breath of not damp air. It felt good. We went into a courtyard and saw people packed in. Way above us on a balcony were Joy and Fabian. Her stomach was slightly inlarged. That can't be real.
"See she's carrying the heir." Patricia said.
"No. It looks fake." I said.
"Well why would a doctor lie?" Patricia asked.
"Because Joy probably threatened their life." I said.
"Whatever. Now go back to your cell." She said. I glared up at the guard who was holding me. I bit his arm and beat against it. He didn't release. He dragged me away. Patricia gave me a little wave. Evil.
Fabian POV
Joy got pregnant. I actually didn't think she could do it. I tickled her belly. She gave a smile before placing a hand over her stomach.
"Fabes, I don't want to be startled. It could harm the baby." She said.
"Sorry Joy." I said. She gave a soft smile.
"It's fine but I'm going to the sleeping chambers." She said.
"Goodbye babies." I said patting her belly. She smiled again and went away. I went down to the dungeons. I went to where Princess Nina should be. She wasn't there. I whipped around and saw a guard.
"Where is she?" I asked. He lead me to another much dirtier cell. She was on the bed. I stepped inside and the guard left us.
"Yes?" Nina asked.
"It seems I have no use for you." I said.
"Please don't kill me." She blurted. I raised my eyebrows. "Joy is lying somehow!" She said.
"But why would a doctor lie?" I asked.
"I don't know but I've seen many pregnant people around my castle and she doesn't look really pregnant." She said.
"Alright come." I said. She stood up and brushed off her legs. I took her out of the cell and through the palace. She seemed kind of shocked by all the things that were around here.
We made it to the sleeping chambers. Joy was on the bed staring at the ceiling. She sat up and glared at Nina.
"Why is she here?" She asked. Nina walked over to her. She reached her hand out. Joy jumped away. "Fabes are you going to let her touch me!?" She exclaimed.
"Yes Joy, she wants to feel your stomach." I said.
"She's touching the baby if she does that!" She yelled.
"Joy just do it so I can send her back to her cell." I said. She scowled at me and made a 'go on' gesture to Nina. Nina pressed her hand on it softly and then jept going farther and farther. My eyes widened. Joy's stomach isn't supposed to bend like that.
"You squished the baby!" Joy yelled with her voice wavering.
"Joy, that doesn't happen. What is on your stomach?" I said getting angry. She turned to me with tears in her eyes. "Come here." I said. She walked over. I lifted her dress. A round pillow popped out and dropped on the floor. Nina had a smirk on her face. Joy looked terrified. I picked up the pillow and just looked at Joy.
"Fabian, please don't punish me." She cried.
"Oh this won't go without punishment."
